What do you usually do in lightroom?

Oh, now there's a question... Well, I use Lightroom 3 to import RAW photographs from my cameras to edit, catalogue and share. Editing; depending on the photograph I'll decide whether to make a copy an convert to B&W. Then I'll adjust the photograph for sharpness, cropping, vignette etc until I'm happy with the result. Cataloguing; I'll add a keyword it two to describe the photograph, and use smart folders to keep related photos together. Sharing; well, I can and do email them, show them on Flickr via the various groups I'm in and any other ways. I rarely print photographs via Lightroom as ice yet to figure out how to get printed, what I see on my MacBook Pro. Haven't yet figured out to how to set up a profile. There's other things that can be done with Lightroom that I've yet to try but I find it to be one of the best photo software programmes out there.


Cheers, Macjim.

 

Didn't pay attention to the product before and used it as you are for photo conversion, nothing else. But this was while ago before I have found and read tremendous book called "The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 Book for Digital Photographers" by "Scott Kelby", I believe issued in July 2010. You may probably find it on web in PDF format (if you know where). This book made the Lightroom my #1 choice and I do not use anything else any longer. If I need something special I use plug-ins, but this not happen very often. Another source for tips on the product is Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Killer Tips . Try to find the book and you will be surprised what can you do with tool you have!
